Low wind Kite
Hi every body, just seeing if anybody’s got any ideas on a large kite that fly’s nicely and has good over head pull at very low wind speeds 4 – 10
mph. I have a firebee 5.5m, which is a good kite, but at very low wind speeds it tends to fold and when you use it in higher winds speeds 10+ mph is
real handful. It’s hard to strike a happy medium it’s all or nothing, which is an adrenaline buzz, but I find it very hard to ATB on, just won't
something manoeuvrable and user-friendly. Below is a list of kites I’m thinking about I’d really appreciate any ideas thanks …
Bullet 7m
Ozone Samurai 7.2m
love a large ozone frenzy but out my budget
Libre Vampir 8m
Kinell fusion 6.5
PKD Buster 7m
MAC bego 600
Hope everyone has a great Christmas……...

For Landboarding you want a kite that will give you lift, but also move reasonably well in the wind window.
From your list the Bego is probably the best for this, especially if you want to fly when there is very little wind. You might also want to consider
a Blade 3 - a bit more pricey but he 6.6 will give you the low wind ability you need and definitely the lift :o
